Chapter 103: Chapter 100 Chu Yan: Just Pretend the Meal I Cooked Before Was Fed to a Dog
"This is the Dragon Blood Ginseng."
The familiar scent caught Tengshe’s attention, making the little bracelet restless.
Qin Zhao, worrying that he might suddenly jump out and scare others, sternly forbade Tengshe from appearing.
"Alright, thank you, Elder Yu. Your son has been soulless for two years and his body is still quite weak. Take good care of him and stop going to those desolate, uninhabited mountains."
Yu Jiajun sighed, "I’ve learned my lesson this time. I won’t dare go again."
He used to love exploring deep mountains—after all, young people enjoy thrilling and mysterious things.
But having woken up and seen his father’s haggard appearance, he realized how worried his family had been over these last two years. It would be better to just stay in the city from now on.
"I’ll be leaving now, no need to see me out."
After Qin Zhao got what she came for, she was ready to leave.
Elder Yu wanted to see her off, but she declined, insisting that he stay with his son.
However, Elder Yu still thoughtfully arranged for a driver to take Qin Zhao back to her apartment.
Not long after Qin Zhao left, Elder Yu received a phone call from Xu Zhiwei’s grandfather.
"Old Yu, I heard you found a young girl to treat your son. What if something goes wrong?
Do you really believe in all that mysticism? I can introduce you to several competent masters; there’s no need to take risks with that girl."
Elder Yu cheerfully replied, "Thank you for your concern, Sir Xu, but my son is already better."
"What? He’s already better?"
The caller was shocked for a while, disbelieving, "Really?"
"Yes, that young girl is even more powerful than the other masters! I had already consulted masters before, who told me my son lost his soul but was physically fine."
"Did you give her the Dragon Blood Ginseng?"
"Yes. She is the lifesaver of my son!"
With Elder Yu saying so, Old Sir Xu couldn’t say much more.
He had called to try and get Elder Yu to sell the Dragon Blood Ginseng to his granddaughter.
But now that the girl had cured Yu Jiajun, he couldn’t very well compete with the Yu Family’s lifesaver for it, could he?
Further discussion might upset Elder Yu.
Weiwei was next to her grandfather when he hung up the phone, and Old Sir Xu relayed the news to her.
He also comforted her, "Weiwei, it’s okay. Even without the Dragon Blood Ginseng, there are many good medicines that can prolong life. You are the treasured granddaughter of the Xu Family; your grandfather will spare no expense."
Xu Zhiwei’s complexion grew even paler, and she remained silent for a long time.
Her hands involuntarily twisted together in front of her, her brow furrowed deeply.
Was it the Dragon Blood Ginseng she cared about?
Of course not!
What she cared about was that Qin Zhao got the Dragon Blood Ginseng!
The woman who had the same wedding ring as Chu Yan, but who didn’t deserve Chu Yan at all!
Although Chu Yan was the Lu Family’s illegitimate son, in Xu Zhiwei’s world, he was her savior, having pulled her back from the brink many times—no woman was worthy of him!
Xu Zhiwei left her grandfather’s room, distraught.
After much hesitation, she couldn’t help but give Chu Yan a call.
When Chu Yan answered, her voice was slightly choked, "Dr. Chu, I—I’m not feeling well; can you come to my house to check on me?"
A cold voice came through the phone, "I am off work, call the hospital emergency."
Then there was a busy tone; he had hung up.
Xu Zhiwei thought about what Qin Zhao had said earlier that day, how he had insisted his wife wear the wedding ring and even spent most of his savings to buy her beloved jewelry.
Could such a distant and unattainable man really do such a thing?
Thinking of him pleasing another girl, Xu Zhiwei felt a mad jealousy.
She gripped her cellphone tightly, staring at Chu Yan’s contact name, overwhelmed with emotions she had never felt before.

Qin Zhao had intended to go home but, on the way, Tengshe said eating the Dragon Blood Ginseng would turn him back to his original form.
Wouldn’t that tear her house apart?
So she had the driver take her to an isolated spot in the suburbs.
Finding a deserted clearing, Qin Zhao finally let Tengshe out.
"Mommy’s good big boy, eat up."
She opened the brocade box and revealed the Dragon Blood Ginseng.
It was Elder Yu’s many years treasured Dragon Blood Ginseng, aged over a thousand years.
Tengshe turned into a little milk baby and wolfed it down with a roar.
Hearing Qin Zhao’s words, he couldn’t help but grunt.
Considering she helped him get the Dragon Blood Ginseng, he decided not to hold too much against her.
The little fellow with short legs, sped toward a far corner of the open space.
Before long, a tremendous noise erupted.
Tengshe transformed into its original form, roughly tens of meters long, still in its juvenile state.
It was a prodigy among serpents, nearly ready for Ascension even in its youth.
But its tail had been severed, cut off by an excavator.
After ingesting the Dragon Blood Ginseng, Tengshe used its own Spiritual Power to gradually heal its tail, which seemed to slowly grow back a little.
As Tengshe recovered from its injury, Qin Zhao could feel her cultivation had also increased slightly.
The advantage of bonding with a high-level Spiritual Pet was in its ability to boost its master’s cultivation.
Suddenly, she felt that acquiring today’s Dragon Blood Ginseng was quite worthwhile.
Qin Zhao squatted nearby, waiting for Tengshe to repair its tail.
At home, Chu Yan was preparing dinner.
However, Qin Zhao hadn’t been home for several evenings, so he sent her a message.
Dead White Lotus: Will you be coming home for dinner tonight?
Qin Zhao: I’ve seen through your tactics of winning hearts.
Qin Zhao: Your cooking skills must have been honed by cooking for other women, right?
Dead White Lotus: Where would I get other women?
Dead White Lotus: It’s you who shouldn’t be finding men outside.
Qin Zhao: Well, I certainly wouldn’t invite strange men to dinner.
Dead White Lotus: Fine, it’s as if I’ve fed my past meals to dogs.
Qin Zhao: Are you calling me a dog?!
Having met Xu Zhiwei today, Qin Zhao already felt annoyed with him.
And now he was even insulting her!!
Qin Zhao: Do you think what you cook is tasty?
Qin Zhao: Each time, I’ve barely managed to swallow it!
Qin Zhao: It must be my excessive kindness that gives you such confidence.
Dead White Lotus: [Photo of a table full of dishes]
Dead White Lotus: Bought king crab today, will eat it myself.
Dead White Lotus: [Smile]
Qin Zhao’s expression stiffened for a moment before she clicked on the photo and couldn’t help but swallow her saliva.
A king crab, larger than her face, looked absolutely delicious.
Qin Zhao: Sorry, I was a bit harsh just now.
Qin Zhao: I won’t be harsh to you again.
Dead White Lotus: It’s alright.
Dead White Lotus: I shouldn’t have insulted you either, it isn’t your fault.
Qin Zhao: Then it’s your fault.
Qin Zhao: Apologize!
Dead White Lotus: ??
Qin Zhao: No apology is fine.
Qin Zhao: Just give me the king crab.
Dead White Lotus: [Smile]
Qin Zhao: Did you just insult me?
Qin Zhao: I’ve never insulted you no matter what!
Dead White Lotus: ...
Dead White Lotus: Alright, I’ll give it to you.
Dead White Lotus: When will you come back?
Qin Zhao glanced at Tengshe, who had already transformed back into a little cutie and was running over.
She then messaged Chu Yan, saying she would be home soon.
"It’s not fully healed yet, could you go and get some more Spiritual Medicine?"
Tengshe furrowed its tiny brow, "I need those medicinal herbs with Spiritual Energy."
"Why are you so demanding? Do you think making money isn’t tiring for me?"
Qin Zhao grabbed him and slapped a Godspeed Talisman on herself, like lifting a small chicken.
Her figure flashed past the outskirts, rushing at high speed to the city to catch a taxi home.
King crab, king crab...
